Call for Papers
Hydrogeophysics and Deep Groundwater
Denver, CO
March 20-21, 2017
This National Ground Water Association (NGWA) conference focuses on the use of geophysics (from remote sensing to borehole applications) for groundwater studies and includes a follow-up to the 2014 NGWA Conference on Characterization of Deep Groundwater. The conference is being held concurrently with the 30th Annual Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Engineering and Environmental Problems (SAGEEP). Participants will have opportunity for dual registration to be able to attend sessions in either conference for the duration of the NGWA event. Abstracts for the NGWA event are solicited under two broad tracks.
Abstracts must be submitted in sentence form and without bullet points by
Monday, November 14, 2016
at 11:59 p.m. ET.
Titles should be limited to 100 characters or less and abstracts should be limited to 300 words or less.

Track 1: Applications of Hydrogeophysics to Groundwater Characterization, Monitoring, and Management
Abstracts are solicited on applications of airborne, land-based, and shallow marine geophysics to groundwater problems, including the following applications:
- 3-D geologic modeling
- Aquifer characterization
- Drone technology
- Energy development and mining applications
- Freshwater/saltwater interactions
- Karst and fractured-rock applications
- Land subsidence
- Managed aquifer recharge
- Recharge estimation
- Site remediation
- Surface water/groundwater interactions
- Urban water resources
- Use of remote sensing for estimation of water use
- Water quality
Track 2: Deep Groundwater Applications
Abstracts are solicited on all aspects deep groundwater, defined generally as that beneath the typical depth limits of today’s withdrawals for water supply. Abstracts specifically addressing deep groundwater are solicited on the following topics:
- Aquifer exemptions
- Carbon sequestration
- Characterization of deep groundwater
- Deep drilling and monitoring technologies
- Deep groundwater flow systems
- Saline groundwater
- Unconventional oil and gas development
- Underground waste injection
Deadline for New Submissions: Monday, November 14, 2016 at 11:59 p.m. ET.
